Measured GFR in line with eGFR for predicting CKD outcomes
Combining creatinine and cystitis C offered best accuracy for estimated calculations ...
Because race is a social construct, not a physical characteristic, the race coefficient may not be needed to calculate eGFR. Removing the race coefficient could increase the number of black ...
Learn what GFR means, how it measures kidney function, and why it is one of the most important tests for kidney health.
BOSTON -- Some equations used to calculate estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) may alter chemotherapy dosing in cancer patients, a prospective study indicated. Nearly 300 adults beginning ...
eGFR equations significantly overestimate renal function in patients with renal masses when compared with 24-hour CrCl-derived measured GFR, particularly near clinically meaningful thresholds. This ...
Thank you for participating in Dr. Craig Langman's editorial on the epidemic of chronic kidney disease (CKD). [1] We recognize the importance of early detection of CKD and also want to encourage ...
The National Kidney Foundation (NKF) and the American Society of Nephrology (ASN) Task Force on Reassessing the Inclusion of Race in Diagnosing Kidney Diseases has released its final report, which ...
